Man Dies Months Later After Being Found Critically Injured Outside His Home
The family of Jemaine Thomas is seeking answers after the 44 year old died on May 30th at UPMC Montefiore, following three months on life support in the ICU. He never regained consciousness after being found critically injured in February.
Jemaine was discovered on February 22 outside their Arlington home he shared with his girlfriend. A neighbor found him that morning lying in a pool of blood. He was transported to the hospital and placed on life support.
According to family members, Jemaine had been out with his girlfriend the night before. After returning home, he left to pick up an item from his sister’s house. Around 11 p.m., his girlfriend’s son was sent to give him a ride because he had been drinking, but Jemaine declined. The family does not believe he drove himself home. The circumstances of how he got his injuries remain unclear.
His injuries were extensive, including three deep lacerations to the back of his head, a subdural hematoma, and blunt force trauma to his face, hands, knuckles, knees, and toes. He also suffered hypothermia and internal injuries. Medical staff performed a craniotomy to relieve pressure on his brain and told the family the injuries were not consistent with a fall.
According to the family, no one has been taken in for questioning in connection with the case.
Anyone with information about what happened to him is urged to contact (412) 323-7161. Tips may be called in anonymously.
Jemaine would have turned 45 in July. He is survived by a 16 year old daughter, a twin sibling, a brother, and many loved ones still searching for answers.
